QA

Definition

Quality Assurance—testing to find and fix problems before launch.

In Plain English

QA is like a final inspection before moving in—checking everything works properly.

Real-World Example

QA testing checks that forms submit, links work, pages load on mobile, and payments process correctly.

Why It Matters for Your Work

Skipping QA means customers find bugs. QA catches problems before they affect your business.

Common Mistake

Rushing QA. Pressure to launch often leads to insufficient testing and embarrassing bugs.
